[Spridgets] What went wrong - GM culture

[Dave G.]

My Subaru developed a flat cam at 6K - never replaced , and then at 
18K a short block swap due to bad piston slap,  the piston slap was 
back at 38k - "out of warranty"!!

They use a very short skirt slipper piston to reduce friction...  !!

I now have a Honda for a daily driver with 'Ice' tires for the 
winter.......

If I wake up in the morning, and I hurt, it means that I'm still
